Abstract

The strategies of chemical defense in marine opisthobranchs are reviewed, emphasizing the accumulation of secondary compounds through the food chain and the production of defensive compounds in specialized glands. The structures of several new compounds from Aplysia brasiliana, Bursate11a leachii, and Navanax inermis are presented. © IUPAC
